YES! You updated! I'M SO HAPPY!
I'v been waiting for this chapter, thank you so much!!
It's so good to see you writing again.
Anyway, your welcome for reminding you to get back on track. You had me alittle worried their. So I hope you don't run into anymore problems, and have a smooth run with this story.
Jenni(Himeko)^-^

Hey, new reviewer here. Just checked out your fic and it's pretty awesome. I really liked the story plot. Great imagination. You need more reviews, I reckon.

Hey Gato, it's good to see you back.

Yet another unique, suspense-filled chapter, another fic that can help me come up with ideas for "Darkness Arises" when need be. Well once again, welcome back and can't wait for the next update.

Hi, I was originally the unsighed Himeko. But anyway; yeah it's been awhile since you last updated, and everyone has life problems and whatnot. But I just read through this story again, and I was wondering if this story is a lost cause or your just having serious writers block. Reason for asking is: that it would be ashame if this wasn't finished, but hey it's your life.

Very nicely written. I always love a good horror story, and this one was enjoyable to read.

wow I had alot of catching up to do with all that reading. >< been busy...
I must say this story is coming along quiet well, one of my favorite chapter's so far is in the "museum". This is some excellent writing (the whole story so far). Keep it up, look forward to seeing how everything turns out.

Well now, its been awhile since I've had the time to catch up on things but...well I think you've completely surpassed my ability to spin a tale.
There are really times, especially since James has seemingly gone a little crazy that I find myself biting my nails and wondering when things are going to get Silent Hill and nothing will make sense anymore.

Which, by the way, is awesome. There's something infinitely more frightening about trouble in the human psyche then even a fear that you can battle face to face.

Don't delay now that I've gotten back into the swing of things, my own fount of story telling has run a bit dry in the face of other things so its good to have something truly amazing to fill up my brain.

What's gonna happen!?! I just have to know.

I have some business to take care of, so it'll just be a short review this time, just to let you know that I am indeed still reading, and enjoying this story thoroughly. So keep up the good work.

There's only one thing that needs to be said about this. I feel like I'm in Silent Hill. x_x

Whoa... That had to be one of the most weird, and best chapter in the whole story; in my opinion, ofcourse. I really like Joseph's character, he's so crazy; blow off James head? Now that's crazy thinking.
Yeah if your having trouble with the R-rated section you should move it back to PG-13 unless you have some chapters with extreme descriptions of blood and gore, or sex (which I don't think their will be any, no offense, I mean you might but I don't think so with this story.)
Welp, update when you have time.
Himeko ^-^

Hey Gato, that was a totally kick ** Silent Hill-style chapter in my opinion. I liked all the psychological thrills.

Yeah, I think it would be easier for us all if you moved this back to the PG-13 rating, easier for us to tell when you've updated then.

Hey Gato, I'm back! I read this chapter a while back and now I'm finally getting around to reviewing it.

That's cool to see things from Joseph's POV again and I can't wait till you have him explore further into the asylum he just entered.

That was cool to see Kevin appear kicking some ** too.

I love the character make up of James, because of the simple fact that many of us can relate to him. By his actions or thought. ^_^

Hey-ho, its me again. Wow, aren't you just sick of me? :P Well, erm, anyway. Hurrah! Its Joseph, he has returned. I cannot tell you how glad I am of that development.
-
Wow, you've been writing this for a year already? Class, although I think I've only been reading for a couple of months, maybe less. And then it was only up to Chapter 8 I think. So you were certainly taking a while before then if you are now up to Chapter 17.
-
Okay, Joseph suffers from the most bizzare hallucinations ever. Well, almost, I know someone who was chased home by Nemesis once. I mean, in the real world. Although, those ones he was having were pretty terrifying. The kind of ones that make me glad I am a perfectly well-rounded and sane individual. *eyebrow twitches*
-
Joseph's inner voice is quite hilarious. "Yeah, that's right. Leave the crazy bastard behind to die." Hehehe, funny.
-
Hey, was that Kevin? He has good taste in guns, I like him. The .45 is the King.
-
He's afraid of asylums? Hmm, well, he's probably been in enough of them... Maybe, or he's been evading them so much that they scare the crap out of him.
-
May I just commend you on Joseph's train of thought regarding Umbrella. That was good, because most people think that just because someone is involved in an Umbrella disaster, that they know that Umbrella is behind it, and we know that that is not the case, because the S.T.A.R.S didn't work it out until the very end of the game. Or there-abouts. So I was glad to see that Joseph had no clue. He simply thought they were arseholes because they had treated him badly.
-
And now he's going into the potentially terrifying Museum of Madness and Despair, or something similar. That should be good for a bit of angst and a few good bumps in the night. I look forward to the next chapter.
-
P.S. Told you I'd review in time.

Yay, another interesting chapter, and it was about Joseph! Hooray!
Well happy birthday Demon Heart. I almost forgot that this story was moving to the rated R section. I was looking all over for it too. Anyway i'm gald I found it, and I can't wait for the next chapter keep up the good work!
Bye.
Himeko

Hmm, it appears I make a very good muse. In that case am gonna sit and channel you ideas every night so you can get the next chapter to this story up pretty bloody sharpish, so I can read it and look at all the pretty words. O, purty.
-
Jospeh's scenario? Neato. So he gets to like, be alone and everything? So he will go quietly insane in the bowels of Raccoon City and seek a bloody revenge on the rest of our survivors for leaving him behind? Or be I speculating? Heh, my guess is the second one, although would be quite cool if Joe had a secret grudge against James for leaving him behind even though he was actually the one that ran off.
-
Erm, Elizabeth is crazy, right? Like, surely she is not a healthy child. Or maybe she just needs hugs and general love and affection. Or chocolate ice cream.
-
You portray the desperate struggle for life and death very well you know. If I didn't know better I'd have said you've already escaped from Raccoon City and know what it is like, it is all very realistic, the sense of fear, the adrenaline rushes and such.
-
O, James and Bethany are getting close? Hmm, sounds good to me. They just need to find a nice uninfested bedroom and they are set. ^_~ Hey, so he has a wife, no one says that the pressure of the situation wouldn't drive him into the arms of another woman, or maybe he realises the reason he can't get past the death of his son is because he is still with the child's mother and decides to start from scratch after Raccoon. With Bethany. Or maybe they just get the sex out of the way and never have another thought about each other again. It happens. *shrugs*
-
Actually, I think James was right, the hospital was a pretty lame location. Maybe they should go somewhere where they didn't go in the games. The Mall perhaps? I'm sure there is one in Raccoon, instead of just the Arcade Shops.
-
Anyway, great chapter as always, but you be sure to come back and give us more later, okay? I thought so. Later.
